Line 386:

Indirect objects are placed before or after the main SVO structure, usually preceded by a preposition, e.g. ''tihurawamen fal kat'' "you gave it to me", ''ipa palatiik wisutanamen'' "they killed him with spears". Indirect objects of a causative verb (i.e. the semantic object of the original verb) always come after the verb, e.g. ''kisuneenitsa qaqral'' "I made him see the house, I showed him the house).
